Fabulous Royal Navy Admiralty Pattern 183 Bronze Compass & Gimbal Stand (c.1931-50)

The ex-RN bronze compass (Probably Kelvin Hughes) has a really good used patina and will make a great display piece, it sits comfortably on the well constructed homemade mahogany gimbal stand. It marked with the Admiralty Pattern No 183 (Patt 183) and serial No 3792B and it appears to work, but wouldn’t trust it in a real life situation, you might find yourself a few fathoms adrift! It does point to north…..

(Including the stand it measures 20cm H x 24cm x 20cm)

Local delivery, U.K. & International Shipping available with collection’s welcome too
